“The Day when the Trumpet will be blown all those who are in the heavens and on earth shall be terror-stricken – all except those whom Allah wills – and everyone shall come to Him utterly abject. You now see the mountains and consider them firmly fixed, but then they shall pass away even as clouds pass away. That will be the handiwork of Allah Who has created everything with perfect wisdom. He is well aware of what you do. Whosoever comes with good will receive a reward better than his deed, and they will be made secure from the terror of that Day. And whosoever comes with evil, they will be flung upon their faces into the Fire. Will you be recompensed for aught other than what you do?”
(Al Qur’ān – 27:87-90)
The horrors of the Resurrection will stun and confound the unbelievers but the believers will remain calm and satisfied because what will happen will be in accordance with their expectations. They would have already known, as told by God and His Prophets, that the Resurrection and the Next Life are a reality, and, therefore, they will neither be bewildered nor alarmed like those who denied these as long as they lived.
They will also be calm and satisfied because, having believed in it, they will have prepared themselves for this Day and would have carried some provision for it. Unlike the unbelievers, these believers will also be satisfied because the Day for which they had sacrificed pleasures and for whose sake they had endured difficulties had eventually arrived.
